Why I threw away all my Teflon pans ⤵️
PFAS, or “forever chemicals”, are found in a lot of nonstick cookware, especially older Teflon pans. These chemicals don’t break down easily, which means they build up in our bodies over time.
They’ve been linked to hormone disruption, fertility issues, immune dysfunction, and more. You can be doing all the “right” things: eating well, exercising, reducing stress, but if these toxins are hiding in your environment, they’re still taking a toll on your body and your health.

That’s why I run toxicity tests in my practice. Symptoms like fatigue, skin issues, weight fluctuations, and brain fog often have deeper root causes, and chemical exposure is a big one.
If you’ve been feeling “off” and can’t figure out why, it might be time to look beyond the surface. Toxicity tests give us the data we need to truly support your body.
